Crowl, chairman of the Progressive executive committee, read, the following letter, which lie had received from Theodore Roosevelt: February 3, 1913. .My Dear Mr. Crowl: I earnestly wish I could be with you on February 12th to greet the Progressives of Wooster and Wayne county. As this is impossible, I send you a letter of good will. The Progressive party stands today 'precisely where the Republican party stood in tho days of Lincoln, when it was the progressive party of the nation. It is as idle to talk of our amalgamating with either of the old party machines as it would have been to talk of the Lincoln Republicans amalgamating with either the Bourbon Democrats or the Cotton Whigs of their day. We stand absolutely for our platform; we believe in applying the principles of that platform to party management as well as to the government. There is no place in our ranks for tho boss, for the man who represents the alliance between privilege in business and privilege in politics. I firmly believe that there are literally millions of progressives among the rank and file both of the Republican and Democratic parties, and that these men will sooner or later realize that they can do nothing where, they are, and that the only way they can efficiently flgttt for social and Industrial justice.' for political and economic freedom, for equality of opportunity, is? by Joining the Progressed party. They shall have exact equality of treatment with ub without regard to whether they are ex-Democrats orex-Republicans. We welcome all honest citizens to our ranks. With hearty good wishes, I am Faithfully yours, ; THEODORE ROOSEVELT. Prof. Hatton had some difficulty in getting to Wooster.

"His greatness cannot be claimed by any oue political party," said Mr. Tubor, "but any student of his life will agree that he was progressive, always willing to discard the old for the new and improved. "Ho was progressive In 1837 when he advocated universal suffrage, by 110 nieallB excluding women; he was progro(,Blve ln 1854 whe he advocat ed the dissolution of the" old Whig parly, because of its rottenness, and urged the formation of the new Republican party; he was progressive in 1858, when ho set forth his famous 'divided house' doctrine; his every act as president of the United States was that of a constructive progressive."Mr. Tabor spoke at length upon some of the lessons that should be learned from the life of Lincoln, chief among which he named Lincoln's faith in tho rank and file, and his contention for principle. Mr. Tabor stated that since election time he has been in a majority of the counties cf the state, and finds that tho same Intense earnestness, the same devotion to the principles that called the new party Into being, the same determination to Keep up me light until the principles of the Chi cago and Columbus conventions shall be written into statute, is as much in evidence now as before election.
